I doubt that just Orthodox Jews were the only ones voting. ANYONE should have been able to vote, and I can’t stand Paul, but geesh, this is ridiculous....if ONE can, then ALL should be able to. Don’t you agree?
The polls were kept open specifically for Torah observant Jews and for Seventh Day Adventists.

Looks to me like paulistas attempting to use the jews as cover for fraud. Vote the night before & then vote the next day.

Hello, my names Michael DiCicco, and yes this was my first caucus. and that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be allowed to attend. Religious beliefs vs personal beliefs. That is the issue.

Of course it does. Here in Illinois if I'm hospitalized 6 days before an election I could get an emergency absentee ballot, four days before I can't. Establlished rules are meant to be followed, even by Ron Paul supporters. As I noted earlier I think the robocall was contemptable, deliberately giving false information. Your recourse under our system is in the courts, and I wish you well. Not yelling, screaming and disrupting as the media has reported some supporters, not necessarily you, were doing.

BTW, since the Paul campaign knew about this in time for a robocall, and I presume was disturbed by it, why they didn't take legal action. It's not difficult, rather than mobilize the troops under false pretenses.

I assume you sign a registration when voting in a caucus. That could be verified and prosecuted.
